At Conscious Birthing, we embrace the magical, empowering journey of pregnancy and childbirth.
Using methods from many ancient cultures to delve deep into our inner selves, we will begin to reveal what makes us tighten in fear, as well as cry with laughter! From this journeying inwards we connect with what we really want from our birth experience, and indeed from our lives.
During pregnancy, so many changes occur both internally and externally, yet our present day culture seems to offer little more than a ‘conveyor belt’ of clinical procedures. This aspect, coupled with our busy, often stressful lives, can result in there being no space left for us in which to truly acknowledge and celebrate the gifts of this unique time.
Conscious Birthing extends a warm welcome to those of you who want to take time to connect more deeply with your pregnancy and your baby within. Baby has already experienced nine months of life by the moment she/he is born and the relationship between you begins during your pregnancy. By exploring ways in which to develop our awareness, we begin to grow towards birthing with fearless, joyful hearts, trusting in ourselves and connecting to the infinite resources of our natural power as women.
The alternative pregnancy and birthing workshops, retreats and holistic Doula services we offer invite you to prepare, with humour and integrity, for one of the greatest adventures of your life…
To take birth back to its roots; meaning to remember our inherent ability to give life in an undisturbed, natural way.
To use our connection to the elements as a tool for remembering the old ways; gaining strength, courage and clarity from the infinite resources of nature.
To become informed, and therefore empowered, around decision making throughout our birthing experience.
To venture inward, seeking out our roots of strength as well as our roots of fear, allowing us to move with humour and courage through our pregnancy and birth.
To help prepare for the unexpected. Honouring ourselves by keeping open minds around pregnancy and birth. Learning to remain focused and empowered, when labour throws us a 'wild card' through practising flexibility as a means to prevent feelings of failure.
"The heartfelt inspiration, real support and the utmost faith in birthing as a natural, sacred journey are just a few of the many reasons why Conscious Birthing has greatly assisted my deeper embracing of myself as a mother, and my babes as lifelong friends - Thankyou!"
